Tucked into the foothills of the Adirondacks, this beautifully maintained log home offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern convenience — just minutes from Lake George and Saratoga Springs.
Set on 5 private acres, this property is a true country retreat. Start your mornings on the deck, sipping coffee to the soothing sounds of the Kayaderosseras Creek, just a stone's throw away. Bring your farm animals — the two-stall barn and fenced paddock are ready for them — and live off the land with ample space for gardens and homesteading.
An enclosed porch overlooks your own peaceful forest, offering the ideal spot to relax and unwind.
Inside, you'll find a spacious living area with wide-plank wood floors, a cozy wood stove, and a striking open staircase leading to a charming catwalk balcony. The first-floor primary bedroom is conveniently located next to a full bathroom and laundry room.
Additional features include:
A two-car attached garage and a one-car detached garage
Large storage shed and a separate wood shed
Full walkout basement
Expansive yard and driveway
